Located south of Castilblanco, this town is surrounded by ferruginous springs. Here we find an Almohad-era castle, now devoid of walls and decoration, built on an octagonal plan atop a high crag south of the town, on a summit that is difficult to access.

It is a mountain pass that connects areas of the Sierra de los Villares and Mirabueno. It is part of old livestock routes such as the Cañada Real Segoviana, historically used for transhumance. Landscapes: Sierras de Mirabueno and Los Villares, with forests and landscapes such as Tabla Corta (Boquerón Park) on the Guadalemar River. Ideal for hiking, cycling, and nature photography.
